Wow... Wow... Wow. Annette's Café is the definition of a hidden gem! My wife and I were heading home from Gatlinburg when we stumbled upon this cozy little spot right off the highway, and we couldn't have found a better place for a warm, home-cooked meal. If you're looking for something local with real down-home cooking, BINGO--this is it! The atmosphere is simple, welcoming, and full of charm, making you feel like you're stepping into a small-town kitchen where everything is made with love. The food was absolutely fantastic, exactly what you'd hope for from a classic country-style café. From perfectly cooked breakfast plates to hearty lunch options, every bite was comforting and full of flavor. Our server was incredibly sweet and made us feel right at home, adding to the overall experience. Whether you're passing through or live nearby, Annette's Café is 100% worth the stop. This is the kind of place that reminds you why small, locally-owned restaurants are so special!

The place is cute and clean. Our server was sweet and took such good care of us. The food was amazing and hearty.

Breakfast
Jenn M.

Fast service and good breakfast. Unfortunately our server (who was lovely) was yelled at by other servers and management a few times which really turned us off. The sausage and bacon were delicious but the pancakes were just okay. The restaurant was small but tidy... except for the cookie jar shelf which was covered in dust (kinda gross). Overall we'd go again but we aren't rushing back.

Huge portions, reasonable prices, good taste, good service, what's not to like about this country breakfast place. Recommended to you. Tip for owner, dust those antique cookie jars once in a while.

Country Fried Steak, Garlic Mashed potatoes, Green Beans

We aren't locals, but have a Cabin in Otto. Our entire family 25+ often visits "The Cabin" and Annette's Cafe has been a great find! We love all of the options there and try, to try something new every time. Kaylan is always very sweet! The food and prices are great, therefore we always come back! Today I tried the Blackberry cobbler, and within our first two bites my boyfriend said "I can tell this is homemade" Annette has a fine touch for cooking!

Corned beef hash, chicken fried steak with white country gravy, scrambled eggs plus cheese, homemade biscuits.

WOW! Huge portions and incredibly low prices. I'm adding a pic of the outside, as we almost missed it. The chicken fried steak was the best we've ever had and the corned beef hash was the perfect slight touch of salty. And for all of you who don't do pork, they have BOTH sausage gravy and regular white pepper country gravy. PS - my husband got a slice of the coconut cake to go.

Amazing and abundant breakfast. 10/10 recommend.

Hole in the wall definitely worth finding. My daughter and I really enjoyed our breakfast. I had an omelette and she had a biscuit. So. Much. Food.

Taters,  over medium eggs (cooked perfectly), chopped steak, corned beef hash, pancakes and sausage.

See all

The remodel is a success with open views of the mountains. The dining areas are clean and well…read morespaced. The meat and three along with the vegetable only options are welcomed changes to the family style only meal for those desiring smaller portions. In our experience, the food was served hot and was perfectly prepared. We chose white meat chicken and received two large breast that were excellent! The two catfish fillets and four slices of meat loaf were delicious. The vegetables were Lima beans, cabbage casserole, creamed corn, potatoes au gratin, slaw and a spring salad. All were served fresh with two biscuits and two corn muffins. The relish, apple butter and Sogrum-sage butter were delightful. We were blessed to have April for our server, and highly recommend her for your visit. She shared the history of the area and is proud of the changes and history of the Dillard House. Thank you for a great meal. The fried chicken is better than I remembered. Yes, the restaurant is open, and parts of the motel are being remodeled/updated and the new hotel is under construction. Don't let the remodeling deter you from the eating at the restaurant or enjoying your favorite drink from the bar.

Poor service, poor food quality. Not impressed at all…read more Ambience is nice, very spacious, newly built, restaurant. Friendly staff. Not very attentive at all. Say for 15 minutes before the manager had to obtain a server for our table. After the food was delivered, the server did not provide adequate service. I requested a water refill, which took an additional 15 minutes, because she continually forgot. Food quality wasn't the greatest. They served chicken, which consisted of 2 thighs and 2 drumsticks. Along with friend catfish filets, that had been way over salted. Both were very soggy. I ate half the thigh and quit. Veggies? Only vegetables were Lima beans, everything else considered vegetables, was a casserole. A table full of starches. Over rated and over priced. Sadly disappointed. If you want good southern food, go further south to Thomasville, GA. Go to O'Neals. You can fool some folks, but not someone that knows southern cooking. We won't return.

Dinner was Fixe Price... not expensive though ... it was $25 or so. Several great choices. We…read moreboth had the steak. It was served with mashed potatoes and carrots. More like a piece of roast... great flavor. Mine was cooked perfectly, while my wife ordered medium rare and got something on the hotter side of medium, close to well done. The beef was over mashed potatoes and cooked carrots... The wine menu was a bit weak. They need a few good choices for a few bucks more. There is my advice with far less stress than Chef Ramsey.... They had a live entertainer. "George" playing the guitar and singing... quite well done. Not overly obtrusive... not too loud. A good meal at a good price. I would come back.

We have been very good about staying home during these trying times but I wanted to take my wife…read moreout for a romantic dinner ( see previous review ) tried a number of our favorites but found them all booked. We had been to the previous establishment ( Rabun Manor ) and liked it but knew they were going to be under new ownership soon. I called and surprisingly there were tables available. I should have known better.......... It is a beautiful setting and the outside decorations were nicely done ( Halloween ) . We were greeted at the door and seated in a quaint sunroom type of dining room. The troubles from there forward were just not acceptable. The wait staff that we had were uniformed, slow, non attentive and down right lousy. Had to ask for my wife's Prosecco twice and its not like you have to mix up a drink, you pour this straight out of the bottle. Started with one of my wife's favorites, fried green tomatoes......which I never had. They were actually red tomatoes, soggy topped with a sundried tomato aioli, which seemed out of place. Sent that app back with condolences from the chef who actually said that his green tomatoes had turned red. There is a huge tomato farm just a short walk from the resort. Take a walk Luigi !!!!! We looked at each other and said lets try 2 more apps and call it a night. We ordered the flatbread with sun dried tomatoes........soggy, tasteless and the tomatoes were hard to bite thru. Also ordered the steakhouse chili which came to the table looking quite sad. It was " chili " on top of tortilla chips. Again very soggy, full of mostly tomatoes and we found 6 pieces of steak in this mess. Being that my wife is one of the best cooks I have ever known, I do have high expectations but this was an utter shame and a sham of a restaurant. Save yourself the trouble, money and embarrassment of this place and try another place or just stay home, it's safer.

202604241618…read more Parking's can be tricky. Maybe you'll luck out & be able to park in one of the coveted six spaces behind the restaurant. Otherwise park further behind or across street & short walk over. It's an old converted gas station on the corner. Majority of seating is outside. There's some inside seating & a bar inside. Old gas station style bathrooms outside & around the corner. There's a stage for events. Appears to be pet friendly. Nice view of Main Street with shops, desserts & boutiques. You can watch both people & vehicle traffic. Service is quick, quiet & friendly. Lots of specialty drinks to choose from. Food is really good. The Smokehouse Burger is prepared to order with bacon, fried onion rings, melted cheese, tender, juicy, delicious. When you're done, walk up one side & down the other to walk that food off & get yourself ready for dessert. Enjoy!

The good first. The burgers were very good. My wife and I enjoyed the burgers very much. Tasty,…read morehot. While we were greeted and seated quickly, the service was subpar. The establish was not busy. The tables were sticky and had visible signs of glass rings. For not being busy, it took a considerable amount of time for the food to come out. While my food was very good, the wife had fries that were cold. We were served food without any utensils or napkins. It took 8 minutes for utensils to arrive and one napkin each. We asked for more napkins, which never came. My wife mentioned the cold fries and she was brought another serving of equally cold fries. When we were finished, I asked the server for a couple to go boxes. We received one and had to ask for more; eventually getting one more box. It took an additional 10 minutes to get the check, and another 10 to have it retrieved with the credit card. The neighboring table was also dealing with cold fries.
